RE: Cannabis Won't Be Federally Legalized If Big Pharma Has Anything To Say About It

in #cannabis7 years ago

#I've Personally Witnessed People Stop Using Mass Rx,
when they switched to cannabis. You'd be surprised how many people are on 10-14 different prescription medications, with little to no life in them. Too tired to do much.

Switching to cannabis usually, after a while, eliminates most if not all the Rx they're on. Yes, big pharma is looking to lose a lot more than $5Billion a year.

A study in 2013 found the very small percentage of the population, in the few legal states in the US at the time, used up to $156M less in prescription drugs paid for by medicare.

That's $156M, just from medicare patients. Imagine what the true figures are and where they'll be in the next 10 years. Lots more states are medical now and a significantly larger number of people are using cannabis.

Want to end the health crisis? Legalizing cannabis completely would go a long way towards this goal.

It's just amazing how many problems cannabis helps or fixes
